The Ionian Room has perhaps the most sophisticated atmosphere of any of the rooms on the ship. The name refers to the
waters off Greece and so the decor draws upon Ancient Greece for its inspiration. It is decorated with wood paneling,
Greek vases, and leather armchairs. In the evenings, a jazz ensemble plays. The room is also sometimes used for afternoon
tea on sea days.
Seven Seas Bar is located in the lobby in central atrium of
the ship. With the Purser's desk and the Tour office located
nearby and the glass elevators ascending and descending the
atrium, there is a great deal of life to this place. Yet, it is not
overly noisy or crowded. At various times, a pianist or a
classical trio plays behind the bar. It is also used for cruise staff
activities such as trivia and Name That Tune.
Recalling two seas that are named after colors,
Mr. Farcus presents a bold color scheme in
the Black & Red Seas. Originally,
designed as a jazz bar, the room is intimate
enough for a singer with an acoustic guitar to
provide the live music.
Club Arctic is the ship's disco. The walls are lined with
television monitors. There is a large dance floor as well as a
sizeable bar. Very loud and very popular. It has adults only
hours and time set aside for teens.
The Irish Sea Bar, appropriately done in
shades of green, is a piano bar where patrons
can gather around a circular bench decorated
with piano keys and sing along with the pianist
who sits in the center,
The Adriatic Lounge at the stern of the ship is a large cabaret-style lounge that seats
425. It is the venue for the Captain's Welome Aboard Receptions karaoke, art auctions
and live music. It is also now the Punchliner Comedy Club where stand up comics do
PG and R-rated
shows.
The Caribbean Lounge is the largest
entertainment venue on the ship rising through
three decks and seating 1,350 guests. It is used for
the ship's production shows, bingo, as well as talks
and lectures such as the end-of-cruise
disembarkation talk. It is also equipped with a
large movie screen .
The South China Sea Club is a large casino
with slot machines, roulettedice, blackjack and
various types of poker tables. It also includes a bar
(the Trident Bar) and a small stage where a rock
band performs.
The Aegan Sports Baris a small venue that has video
screens to show sports events.
